SECURE WAFER HANDLING. GENTLE CONTACT. RELIABLE PERFORMANCE.

Semiconductor Handling

Dry-adhesive gripping solutions for reliable wafer transport, precise placement and demanding semiconductor environments.

High acceleration

Reliable lateral grip for fast wafer transfer and positioning.

Gentle release

Controlled release with low normal forces during pick-up and placement.

Surface integrity

Designed to reduce the risk of marks, scratches and unwanted residues.

Cleanroom & Vacuum

Configurations available for demanding cleanroom and vacuum applications.

BUILT FOR SEMICONDUCTOR PROCESSES

Where INNOCISE fits into your process.

In wafer handling, reliable grip is only part of the challenge. Precise positioning, controlled release and surface protection are equally critical throughout the process.

INNOCISE provides dry-adhesive gripping solutions for wafer transfer, positioning and temporary holding, engineered around the requirements of your component and process.

Stable wafer handling during fast movements, acceleration and deceleration.
Reliable wafer transfer between carriers, tools and process stations.
Stable, controlled holding during processing, inspection and other handling steps.

Standard Wafer Pads

Standardized gripping pads for reliable handling of flat wafers and repeatable processes.

IDEAL FOR
  • Flat and thin wafers
  • Repeatable processes
  • Defined contact geometries
WWP (1)

Warped Wafer Pads

Designed to accommodate wafer deformation and maintain reliable contact across non-planar surfaces.

DESIGNED FOR
  • Warped or bowed wafers
  • Varying wafer topographies
  • Non-planar contact conditions

Custom Wafer Solutions

When wafer geometry, process conditions or integration requirements go beyond standardized solutions, we engineer the gripping interface around your application.

WHEN STANDARD IS NOT ENOUGH
  • Specific wafer geometries
  • Special process environments
  • Custom carrier or end-effector designs
  • New OEM platforms

APPLICATION VALIDATION

Performance you can validate.

A gripping solution needs to perform under the conditions that matter in your process. INNOCISE evaluates key handling characteristics using dedicated test setups and representative samples.

> 7.4 N/cm²

Shear adhesion

< 0.2 N/cm²

Normal adhesion

Up to 4 g

Handling acceleration

< 20 µm

High placement accuracy

Performance depends on the application. That’s why INNOCISE evaluates gripping, release and dynamic behavior under conditions relevant to your process.

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND THE CONTACT

More than a gripping surface.

Gecomer® Technology uses bio-inspired microstructures and van der Waals interactions to create reliable dry-adhesive contact. By engineering the interaction between microstructure, material and contact geometry, gripping performance can be adapted to different handling requirements.
